Memes, Mirth and MCC

A Particularly Gorgeous Meme Example

A Particularly Gorgeous Meme Example

I have a soft spot for memes.  I love them. They tickle my funny bone in the best way and they are EVERYWHERE.  Condescending Wonka, Bad Luck Brian, Skeptical Baby, Grumpy Cat… the list is endless. If you’re not sure what I’m on about, do click over to the Memesly.com list of popular memes. But be warned, you may lose hours of productivity…

With the rise of meme hilarity on the internet, people have (as one does on the internet) started making their own memes. Meme generators are everywhere, where you can choose or insert an image and add a caption. Knowing this, I did a little giveaway on the SuperFANS mailing list. We were generously given 5 more double sets of tickets to pass on to deserving SuperFANS (in addition to our previous Magic of Bubbles giveaway). And the winners were chosen through trial by meme!

Wine Concepts Burgundy Lover’s Festival

Wine Concepts Burgundy Lover's Festival 2014

Wine Concepts Burgundy Lover’s Festival 2014

If you love wine (surely everyone reading this does?), and you love the Burgundies, then you’ll love this: Wine Concepts is hosting the fourth annual Burgundy Lover’s Festival. And I can assure you, this year we are all in for a treat. Definitely an event all lovers of fine Pinot Noir and Chardonnay need to take note of.

The Cape Town event will be hosted at the Vineyard Hotel & Spa in Newlands on Friday 13 June 2014, from 17:00 to 20:00. Incogvino has gotten a sneak preview of what’s in store at this year’s popular event.

The festival is all about getting the big names in the business of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in one room and offering tasters some undiscovered gems in between.

Winter Sculpture (and wine) Festival at Nirox 2014

This is a truly remarkable event. Not only do you have some great food and wine to explore, but if you’ve never been to the Nirox Sculpture Park – you’re missing out. The only way I can describe it, is as if a billionaire landscaper got bored and dumped all his/her time and money into creating possibly the most wonderful outdoor environment I’ve ever come across.

Nirox is essentially a retreat for artists, primarily sculptures – and you’ll be able to explore the entire park while quaffing away your troubles. Sound cool?
